Re: In which city was your Suburban made?

The green suburban is a Custom, 1967 K20 built in Fremont. 327 4 barrel, sm420 4 speed, Rockwell t-case, 4:56 gears, 1 of 120 built that year and is the ugliest color green Gm ever made. Its current paint job was rolled on with a roller ! The 1972 Suburban is a Custom Deluxe C/20 coil spring with overloads, 350/350, front and rear A/C and is highly optioned.
